Most chemical flea control products are focused on eliminating adults, although the adult flea accounts for less than 10% of the entire flea population (most fleas are eggs and larvae).
Unfortunately, the chemicals used in many standard flea control products are poisonous... and not just to the flea. As with many other bugs, the chemical warefare engaged in between flea and dog owner often results in bombs, sprays, and dips, leaving a chemical residual for everyone to "enjoy".
And the fleas? As is the case with any antibiotic or pesticide: some portion of the population is resistant to the chemical. So these "hearty" fleas breed and begin a new strain on which the chemical has no impact. And as we all know, then new chemicals are made that are generally even less safe for the dogs and their families, and the cycle continues.
Fleas, like any parasite, favor weak animals. So, it is important to keep your dog as healthy as possible, not only for fleas, but for disease resistance, endurance, and long life. And, long story not very short, that is why we offer natural products for your dogs-- sticking close to nature is simply the best way to enjoy and treat your dog!
Build on the use of natural pest control by feeding your dog only natural high-quality dog food and give those pesky fleas a doubly whammy!
